Poem by Stephen Crane

* * *

With eye and with gesture
You say you are holy.
I say you lie;
For I did see you
Draw away your coats
From the sin upon the hands
Of a little child.
Liar!

1. If I should cast off this tattered coat
2. Two or three angels
3. If there is a witness to my little life
4. The successful man has thrust himself
5. Ay, workman, make me a dream
